That is awesome! I'm truly glad that Solidworks is doing this. It's a great opportunity for everyone. And the fact that their expanding means that many are taking it. This is awesome.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

Awesome! So I should i made it.. i hope :eek:

Will we receive any sort of email conformation?

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

We haven't CADed in all our years as a team. Middle of this season I got a VEXplorer kit that came with the free 150 days of Solidworks I taught myself how to use it and I'm already teaching some of my team members the basics. Tutorials like this should be really helpful to use.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

I signed up... got some 3D modeling experience but not CAD kind of experience.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

Why do we use Survey Monkey? Because there are legal issues in entering students names into the SolidWorks Corporation database. We cannot store this information. Survey Monkey allows us to easily delete names, once we ship software.

The legal process is different after you install SolidWorks software. We will then ask you to enter your email address and we do keep track of these in our SolidWorks database.

Since SolidWorks Summer School is open to students of all ages, we cannot assume students are over 18.

If you were able to fill out the survey monkey, you will receive software.

Again, we limit our email back due to legal issues with minors. However, we can ship things the old fashion way.

This process does work; we ship thousands of copies of SolidWorks to the Formula SAE teams and and college robotics teams that use our products in competitive engineering design. We protect our software and we protect our students according to the law. Marie

Wow that was fast, I received my software today.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

Yup i received mine today. 12 months solidworks 2007 with cosmos :D

i cant wait for the tutorials... maybe i can pick up some new stuff

...forest

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

dang thats fast.. :0

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

Thank you for explaining.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

hopefully i'll get mine tomorrow. but im looking forward to it.

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

I got mine today...I'm so excited. Thank you SolidWorks!

I was wondering if SolidWorks allowed for licneses to be transfered? (Autodesk has something where you can install the product on multiple computers and switch off the licnesses between computers)

Thanks!

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

got my solid works software in the mail today =)
is knowing cad in advance going to help me?
or is this completely different?
and when are the online tutorials going to be posted up

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

I believe it would be because you won't have to learn all over again how to design models and the such.

If you are refering to Auto CAD, then it will be different, and you might have to think in different ways, but you'll get used to it.

As far as the software, I haven't gotten it yet.

And I'd bet that the tutorials would come up starting in June, maybe late May.

I don't know for sure, but I can't wait for it.

Correction: The lessons will begin in July and go through April

Re: SolidWorks Robotics Summer School
 

this is sooooo cool! Im so excited to learn how to CAD !

I got my CD today
Thank you Solidworks!
